Auctioneers may require in part payment, or the whole of the purchase money if required; in default 
of which the lot or lots so purchased to be immediately put up again and re-sold. 

5 All deposits made are applicable to any or all purchases either at this sale or at any previous sale. 

6 The lots to be taken away and paid for at the buyer’s risk and expense within the time announced 
by the Auctioneer, the Auctioneers not being responsible for the correct description, genuineness, 
authenticity or defect in any lot, and making no warranty unless specially mentioned at the time of 
sale. No sale will be set aside nor allowance made on account of any incorrectness, error in cataloguing, 
or any imperfection not noted. No deduction on damaged articles, all goods are exposed for public 
exhibition, and sold just as they are. Purchases will be delivered only upon presentation of receipted 
bill therefor. 

7 To prevent inaccuracy in delivery and inconvenience in settlement of the purchases, no lot can 
on any account be removed during the sale; and the remainder of the purchase money must absolutely 
be pad within the time announced by the Auctioneer and before the examination or removal of the 
goods. 

8 The time allowed for payment of bills and removal of goods is either printed in the catalogue or 
announced by the Auctioneer and can always be obtained from the office of the Auctioneers. It is the 
duty of all purchasers to inform themselves thereof and no responsibility shall rest upon the Auctioneer 
by reason of the purchaser’s ignorance thereof. 

9 All purchases made at this sale are at the purchaser’s risk as soon as they are struck off; the Auc- 
tioneers not being responsible if all or any part of such purchases be lost, stolen, damaged or destroyed; 
however, without assuming any responsibility the Auctioneers will take all usual precautions for the 
care and protection of the goods during the time allowed for the removal thereof. 

10 All claims must be made before the removal of the goods. 

11 In case of purchases for which settlement is required by estimated or actual weights, counts or 
measures, no adjustments will be made after the time allowed by the Auctioneers for the removal of 
the purchases. No adjustment made on items sold by the lot. 

12 The record kept by the clerk of the sale, together with the marked catalogue of the Auctioneers, 
shall in all cases be accepted by the buyers as final when any question arises.

by the purchasers to comply with these terms, the money deposited in part payment shall be forfeited; 
all lots not paid for and removed within the time allowed by the Auctioneers shall be re-sold at public 
or private sale without further notice, and the deficiency (if any) attending such re-sale shall be made 
good by the purchasers at this sale, together with all charges and expenses which may be incurred by 
reason of their failure to comply with the terms of sale. 

14 The Auctioneers will not be liable for non-delivery of any article above the amount paid by the 
purchaser of such article. 

15 Commissions to purchase will be executed by the Auctioneers without charge, such purchases, 
however, being made subject to the terms of sale. 

eid In Hey of lots upon which there is a reserve, the Auctioneers shall have the right to bid on behalf 
of the seller.

Se uied weight, count or measure the purchaser will be required to take such excess at the rate of 
purchase. 

20 In every case where samples of the lots are shown, these samples to the best of our belief are 
true and fair, but bidders are cautioned that they must make examination of lots before the sale and 
no allowance will be made on account of any difference between the sample and the lot. The location 
of every lot is obtainable from the Auctioneers and it is the duty of purchasers to make examination 
before the sale. In cases of lots sold by description, the information has been obtained from reliable 
sources and is believed to be correct, but cannot be guaranteed.

shipping of purchases, and although they will afford to purchasers every facility for employing careful 
carriers and packers, they will not hold themselves responsible for the acts or charges of the parties

The Reception at the Castle 


From an architectural standpoint this composition would commend the 
artist for his mastery of broad strokes and harmonious color schemes. But the 
figures are yet to be reckoned with and in them we find the same mastery of 
composition in drawing and color. On the broad plaza in front of the castle 
many figures are gathered. Heroic gentlemen, gossipers, children at play, each 
figure possessing the technique of the master. Added to this the beautiful 
stretch of sea to the left with a high rock bound shore, and the blue sky over 
which float sweeping white and sunlit clouds, all blend into an admirable com- 
position. |

Passing Clouds — 


The motive of this picture, simple as its title, is the simplicity of pictorial 
eloquence. Direct in its appeal, the painting brings the boundless outdoors 
close within the vision of the beholder, putting him in intimacy with the celestial 
and terrestrial panorama. 

The flooded sky is billowing with grey-white clouds in robust masses, 
while feathery expansions of the tenuous vapor are tinted in mauve and rose 
as they course before the mottled turquoise of the distant ether. 

The landscape below is silent, wild and free—no man has fenced it in or 
harrowed it. A colorful moorland crossed by a line of low-branching trees 
beyond a pond, which reflects the azure of the unseen zenith and the edges of 
the white clouds, and the wandering shadows of its humble shores.

of my works to which I devoted great care. The place is well known on 
the coast of the Mediterranean, near the Gulf of Juan. I believe that

grand one. 

Accept my sincerest compliments.

This is indeed a superb spot, full of grandeur as M. Harpignies says, and 
a noble tree worthy of its surroundings. We look up, an emerald canopy screens 
the sky, supported by the sturdy grey limbs and branches of the great tree. We 
look beneath the huge, umbrageous arch, to find the sunlight brilliant on the 
nearby shore of the glowing, sapphire sea. Distant coast lines rise vaguely and 
low in a sky suffused with a yellowish white light. In front of all this, the 
foreground is a carpet of rich, luxuriant verdure. A brighter emerald than the 
arch above, threaded by a woodland road leading to the blue gem, which is 
the sea, its shaded courses spotted with sunlight filtering through the inter- 
stices of the foliage aloft and lesser trees are assembled as a retinue at a little 
distance from the monarch.

Gathered upon a beach of a French watering-place are many persons en- 
gaged in various pastimes. In the centre are grouped a number of people 
enjoying the festive scenes. On the sea two sail boats are plying, white-capped 
waves running in and breaking on the shore are seen in the foreground. The 
sea reaches out to the horizon, and the sky is overcast with grey clouds, inter- 
spersed with patches of blue.

GREUZE, JEAN BAPTISTE 
(French, 1725-1805) 


ur ) 5S. Portrait of Mademoiselle Olivier 


Mlle. Olivier was one of the actresses of the “Royal,” the Nation’s theater 
under the First Republic. 

The attractive and thoughtful young woman appears at half-length and 
almost full face, life size, and leaning forward and to her left, so that her head 
rests upon her left hand, as her left elbow finds support on a table in front of 
her. Her luxuriant blond hair falls lightly over her temples and in loose ringlets 
beside her full throat. It is crowned with a blue head-dress and feathers, and 
her filmy white gown, cut low and short sleeved, is trimmed and girdled in 
pale blue. Her eyes are blue and her cheeks a pale rose.

Wildwood Rapids BEE i 

An early summer view with the foliage in lacy bloom. The waterfall from 
the deep sunlit ravine tumbles over the terraces of rocks, reaching finally the 
deep trout pool in the foreground, where a fisherman is picking his way up 
stream among the mossy rocks. The sky is blue with a patch of white rolling 
cloud, and the sunlight glistens among the tall tree trunks adding its note to 
a tranquil composition.
